Fork Lane Students Stroll Down Memory Lane As They Celebrate Moving Up

HICKSVILLE, NY — Hicksville Fork Lane Elementary School fifth graders celebrated their advancement to middle school with a strolling celebration on June 17, moving from one end of the school’s front lawn to the other.

Students and family members started the festivities of the day walking through a balloon arch, moving on to tables manned by teachers and staff. The students and their family members stayed together in line and moved forward. At each table stop, the students received a special memento of their time spent at the school, and each of the tables was manned by members of the kindergarten team and teams from grades 1-4.

Each table stop was an opportunity for students and teachers to reminisce, take a photo and get a quick hug of good wishes.

Once through the tables, the celebrated students stopped and picked up their certificates and awards and had time to pose for a photo with Principal Susan Guiliano and friends, too.

The last stop for everyone was a table of sweet treats manned by the Fork Lane PTA.
